Uncompromising performance and density for data center productivity and scaleThe PowerEdge R640 is the ideal dual-socket platform for dense scale-out data center computing and storage. Benefit from the flexibilty of 2.5â€ or 3.5â€ drives, the performance of NVMe and embedded intelligence to ensure optimized application performance in a secure platform. With embedded diagnostics and SupportAssist, the R640 delivers maximum uptime in a worry-free environment.

Drive transformation with the Dell EMC PowerEdge portfolioData center evolution starts with modern platforms that easily scale and are optimized for application performance. The PowerEdge R640 is built upon a scalable system architecture and provides the choice and flexibility to easily meet performance demands.- Simplify deployment and easily scale from 3 to 1000+ nodes for software-defined storage with Dell EMC Ready Node for ScaleIO.- Maximize storage performance with up to 8 NVMe drives.- Scale compute resources with IntelÂ® XeonÂ® Scalable processors, delivering a 27% increase in processing cores and 50% increase in bandwidth over previous generation of Xeon processors.

Automate productivity with intelligent, embedded managementDell EMC automation and intelligent management mean you spend less time on routine maintenance so you can focus on bigger priorities.

Protect server configuration and firmware from malicious changes with new Configuration Lock-down.Use system erase of local storage to help ensure data privacy when you repurpose or retire servers.Automate updates that check file dependencies and proper update sequence, before deploying them independently from the OS/hypervisor.Take control of your firmware consoles with embedded authentication that is designed to allow only properly designed updates to run.
